When Madeline Prescott took a teaching position at Mrs. Harris's School for Young Ladies, it was to help restore her father's reputation. Instead, she's in danger of ruining her own. The devilishly handsome Anthony Dalton, Viscount Norcourt, has agreed to provide rake lessons to Mrs. Harris's pupils so they can learn how to avoid unscrupulous gentlemen, and Madeline is to oversee his classes. She has always believed that attraction is a scientific matter, easily classified, and controlled - until she's swept into the passionate desire that fiercely burns between her and Anthony. Nothing could be more illogical than risking everything for a dalliance with a rake - even one who's trying to behave himself. Yet nothing could be more tempting.

" Another fun book from Sabrina Jeffries. Can a rogue turn into a gentleman to save his neice? It's not always easy. "

" Despite this being the kind of romance where you want to bash the hero and heroine's heads together, I couldn't help enjoying this installment in Jeffries' School for Heiresses series. For one thing, we get to see the inner workings of the school. Teacher Madeline Prescott is scientifically curious about human nature, and naturally her interest in notorious rake Anthony is strictly scientific. Well, actually she needs his help to clear her father's name, and her attempts to get it without actually revealing anything to our hero keeps the plot going. Madeline is an appealingly intelligent character, although she suffers from plot-induced stupidity. The book is saved by the hilarous scenes of Anthony instructing the students of Mrs. Harris' school on how to avoid rakes. "

" I believe I would have given another star if there had been about 50 fewer pages and the plot had moved along just a bit quicker. "

" Another book in the School for Heiresses series. One of my favorite so far. Humerous and well-written. "

" Such a page turn that I had to force myself to put it down. Excellent author. I look forward to more of her books. A historical romance. "

" Arguably my favorite in this series so far, with a well motivated heroine and a villainess that is believable. Good inner conflict on the part of the hero. "

Samantha | 11/4/2013

" Another masterpiece by Sabrina Jeffries! Can't wait to read her next one in the School for the Heiresses Series!! =D "

Rachel Rogers | 10/31/2013

" Not a compelling story, really. I kept reading just to read it and not because I was overly drawn to the story. It was nice to actually see some instruction taking place in the school for a change. "

Sabrina | 9/3/2013

" This is a really lovely story. I particuarly enjoyed the storyline of Anthony and his demons. I definitly recommend this book to others. "

Deanna Knippling | 9/1/2013

" A rake in need of some fast respectability in order to keep his niece from being abused by his former guardians agrees to give "rake lessons" for the school of heiresses. Thoroughly enjoyed this, will track down more by same. "

Aileen | 7/21/2013

" Anthony and Madelaine had good chemistry in this story. It was fast-paced and no dull, awkward moment. I almost abandoned reading about this series, but something made me pick it up and bought the rest of the books in the series. "

" Wonderful conclusion to the story, though the father "snapping" out of the depression just didn't feel right to me!
"

MRS | 1/13/2011

" I think this is, so far, my favorite in the SFH series. My only complaint about the heroine is that she lies a lot...I don't know that I fully believed that Anthony would have trusted her so implicitly after all she did.
